Loading a local certificate
To load a local certificate (single certificate/certificate chain), execute the following command.
Syntax
(Switch_Name#)copy tftp local-certificate <ip-addr><file-name>
(Switch_Name#)copy sftp local-certificate [user <user-name>] [<ip-addr/ipv6-addr/host-name-str>] [<username@ip-str>] <filename> [port <1-65535>]
Options
- ta-certificate
Copy a Trust Anchor certificate to the device.
- ta-profile-name
The Trust Anchor Profile associated with the certificate.
- local certificate
Local Certificate to be copied.
- ip-addr
IP address of the server.
- file-name
Name of the certificate file.
- ipv6–addr
Specify TFTP server IPv6 address.
- host-name-str
Specify hostname of the SFTP server.
- user
Specify the username on the remote system.
- username@ip-str
Specify the username along with remote system information (hostname, IPv4 or IPv6 address.)
- port

The loaded certificate is validated against a pending Certificate Request and the maximum number of intermediate certificates allowed is 3 (with a maximum of 5 certificates in a chain). Intermediate certificates must either be loaded before the local certificate or are included as part of the local certificate.
